A.V. Club has shut down Paste Games / Endless Mode.

Endless Mode wasn’t even a year old. In a post, former editor-in-chief Garrett Martin thanked those involved, and there’s been a big outpouring of support for Martin and Paste Games on Bluesky. In a statement to Kotaku, an A.V. Club spokesperson said that the publication eliminated three roles and that “We will continue to have some games coverage, but we cannot sustain a full-time staff covering it with our smaller team.” Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.
